    This thread is about a fake video. If the war is raging on, what's so hard about obtaining actual footage?

    Unless I hear a logical reason to do this on purpose, then yes. Do you have one?

    Goebbels didn't have the Internet where outsiders could counter his claims but the Nazis were still able to control the media enough to create hell throughout the world.

    Controlling the media, or what can be spoken, goes well back of the Nazis, has been a constant throughout history. Now we have a similar problem with Google, Facebook, etc. and I suspect that those defending this ABC 'mistake' will also support the censorship taking place under the giant tech companies.

    Journalism, broadcasting and post production have nothing to do with liberalism.

    It goes back farther than WWI or WWII so do at least try to look knowledgeable.

    We've learned to expect that in the Middle East where dead and injured children being taken to the ambulance are shown playing outdoors later in the day. But in the free world?

    Everyone should be protesting. This latest incident, perhaps trivial in the bigger picture, is an indicator everyone can see and understand immediately..

    Maybe you could explain how this could happen by accident.

    If you have ever worked in the high pressured operation of tv production it is not rare to get the wrong stock footage mislabeled.

    It would be a wildly uneducated guess as I’ve never worked in a news room. Maybe they just got duped?

    Sure. It's just a series of amazing coincidences that propaganda has become so commonly associated with leftists.

    I understand there is a lot of pressure to maintain a steady stream of Trump bashing stories, but how can an annual shoot at a gun range in the US get labeled as Syrian Combat footage?

    So if I understand you we are not talking about fake news, rather we are talking about a news organization that is inept.

    So when we are told we are getting up to date reporting on current events all we ever get is stock footage that may or may not be mislabeled? Hmmm.

    But cultural-marxism has every thing to do with journalism, broadcasting and post production and the radical left with in the Democratic party adopted cultural-marxism during the 1970's.
